Thought of the day

We were sitting at a panaderia watching people pass by and enjoying the early evening. A guy walked by with a cigarette. The pungent smell of his cigarette announced him quite a while before he actually passed by. And it lingered around for much longer - he was already a block away, when we could still smell it.

The following thought occurred to me:

We all have an impact on the world around us. Some impact is positive. Some not so much. 

Once you are aware of this fact you can - if you like - be more careful about what kind of impact you do want to have, and what kind you don’t. Thus be and do more of some things, and be and do less of other things…
